WATER: Focus on water research: Evaporation mitigation solutions for Australian cotton farm storages
The Focus on water research series introduces you to the key cotton water researchers and their work. In this case study, Greg Qiao from the University of Melbourne explains his research into evaporation mitigation solutions for Australian cotton farms.
The Focus on NRM research series introduces you to the key cotton NRM researchers and their work.
Stewart Denston is an experienced cotton grower who has been trialling canopy temperature sensors (CTS) for the Macquarie Cotton Grower Association (CGA) since the 2014-15 season, including installing his own sensors in both heavier and lighter soils.
The Focus on NRM research series introduces you to the key cotton NRM researchers and their work. In this case study, Sean Freney, Dr Erin Peterson, Dr Susan Fuller outline their research into the impact of remnant vegetation on bat activity.
The case study, conducted by AgEcon/CottonInfo's Jon Welsh and AgEcon's Janine Powell, was undertaken to consider the economic and environmental impact of installing microgrids to offset the energy use of surface water irrigation pumps and a small grain drying facility in the Fitzroy Valley
There are a range of ecosystem service benefits that flow from maintaining on-farm natural assets. Previous research has focused on the relationship of semi-natural vegetation providing individual ecosystem services, for example, biological control or pollination.
Read the results of a CRDC-supported study into the energy use of a QLD irrigator, including analysis on the farm's centre-pivot, river pump and grain-drying facilities, conducted by AgEcon/CottonInfo's Jon Welsh and AgEcon's Janine Powell.
Cover cropping is the process of growing a crop during a fallow period, creating ground cover that helps increase water infiltration, slow evaporation, improve soil carbon and soil mineral nitrogen, and protect the top soil.
